Work-Life Balance, Workload, and Compensation Effects on Employee Performance

Abstract

Employee performance optimization represents a critical organizational success factor requiring a comprehensive understanding of influencing variables. This research examines work-life balance, workload, and compensation impacts on employee performance at PT Rantai Laut Medan. Employing quantitative methodology with the census sampling technique, 32 employees participated as research subjects. Data analysis includes multiple linear regression with classical assumption tests. Empirical findings reveal work-life balance and compensation exert positive and significant influences on employee performance, while workload demonstrates no significant effect. Simultaneously, all variables significantly affect performance, explaining 62.5% variance, with the remaining 37.5% influenced by unexamined factors.
